Matildas captain Sam Kerr is backing a campaign calling for a reversal of a decision not to hold Socceroos FIFA World Cup watch parties at Federation Square (Fed Square). Multiple outlets report that Kerr has publicly supported efforts aimed at changing how the venue is used during the tournament, arguing for hosting match viewing events for the Socceroos. The campaign targets the earlier decision that Fed Square will not run watch parties for Socceroos games during the World Cup. The coverage across outlets is aligned in describing Kerr’s involvement as a show of support for those seeking an outcome change, rather than her making further detailed proposals about logistics or scheduling. The reports also frame the issue as a public-facing dispute about access to official fan viewing space during the tournament, with Kerr using her profile to add momentum to the campaign. As of the reports, the decision not to host watch parties remains in place, with organizers seeking to persuade relevant authorities to reconsider.
